The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

Not only that, on different planets, the composition of crystal mines will be slightly different, for example, the special material for making battlecruiser armor plates can only be produced on a small number of planets.Typically, these crystal ores will be more expensive.

"Then it's such a happy decision?" In any case, Oregana has always been excited beyond common sense about mining—and crystal mines are so versatile, maybe she The goal of building a star ring can be achieved by these things "We need to adjust our mining equipment. Iron skin~~ Do you have extra power claws?"

Generally speaking, there are two types of equipment that humans use to collect crystal mines. One is a new equipment that requires frequent maintenance—Mine mules. This intelligent AI-operated collection robot is very efficient, but it is not very durable and can only be used Use when you want to mine as much ore as possible in a short amount of time.It feels like grabbing the crops before the autumn frost, or digging the gas cloud in the wormhole before the hibernators come to the door to beat people and run away...

The other is the backbone of empire building and repair missions - SCVs.This type of large-scale multifunctional engineering power armor is as high as two marines' armor stacked. It can complete various tasks from collecting resources, building buildings to repairing machinery, etc. It is a good friend of all commanders.

However, Tartarus did not have such a device.But it doesn't matter, the remnants are both fighters and engineers, and both marines and Atlas have engineering kits to choose from.

"Then let's go, kid." Reynolds stood up and patted Matt Horner's shoulder. "Magma and bugs are two of my favorites."

"Your hobbies are really special."

"It's not your turn to talk."

--------------

The figure of Hongshi Weisan appeared outside the porthole. The planet has a semi-molten shell, dark red markings spread wantonly on the surface of the planet like spider webs, and the ups and downs of the lava are like the ebb and flow of the tide.Several terrifying huge cracks are clearly visible like knives and axes, and the high-temperature core inside the planet can be seen from the exaggerated cracks.

Professor Koyanagi stood by the porthole, the red light reflected on his unshaven face, making him look like a passerby passing by a neon sign on his way home late at night.He looked at this exaggerated planet with fascination until he heard footsteps behind him.

"Skull control... No, this should be called the head of the legion."

"That's right." Oregana walked to the window, holding a piece of space food in her mouth, sucking it like jelly. "It's thanks to you this time, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do."

"The news has come from the garden. The first candidate you provided has already completed his magic upgrade. Nurgle will watch over you."

The Great Demon Nurgle of Tartarus has been upgraded a few hours ago, and he should have reached the Haven star fortress group by now.

The Great Demon of Nurgle, Alfred 76 of the 'Immortal Swarm', drives... the supreme command node of the swarm, and now possesses the ability to control disease and plague.She will be in charge of epidemic prevention in this war.

"Demon Nurgle will play a very important role in this war." Oregana said sincerely, "Please send our thanks to that lord."

"We will." Professor Xiaoliu nodded, and changed the subject, "Speaking of which, Dr. Ariel Hansen is a rare technical talent. She has a very good way of thinking about infection and blocking, but it is limited to this With the technology of humans in the world, her future growth may become slow and accompanied by dangers, but her future must be limitless. If possible, please ensure that this seedling can bloom and bear fruit smoothly."

His expression was very serious, and his attitude was like that of a teacher who has discovered a talented student.Full of excitement, but slightly anxious—this world is too turbulent, Dr. Ariel Hansen is just an ordinary person, although he has a good mind, and it is easy to die suddenly and inexplicably in this troubled world. Hope this happens.

But he has not been assigned here for a long time, and he will leave after the mission here is completed, so he told Oregana to pay attention to this promising young man from a private point of view like this.

"Oh? I understand." The warlord Oregana is also very interested in this scientist - if it is placed in the stars, this is a five-star scientist + planetary governor. Rare SSRs.If he really died by accident, someone might cry like a dog weighing two hundred catties.

Doctor, she is now—and will be for a long time to come—on board the high-security Hyperion.There is no such thing as casual death while staying on the protagonist's ship?

But since it's mentioned, it's better to keep it in mind. (nod)

"Have you two decided when to leave?"

"We don't have important tasks for the time being, so we decided to continue the development of the Zerg virus vaccine here." "After the 'Immortal Group' Alfred 76 arrives, I will complete the handover with her before leaving."

"Understood, please take this time."

"Of course, I saw a lot of interesting things along the way." Xiao Liu's eyes returned to the Redstone Weisan "staring at the test samples all afternoon, and then walked out of the laboratory, looking at the galaxy and never before." The planets I have seen are also quite interesting.”

"It's best for you to be happy," Oregana showed an approving expression. After repairing the blueprint for a day, she often went to sit on the viewing platform of the fort for a while to relieve her nervousness. "Then we Let’s go first.”

"Bon Voyage."

She raised the huge power claw on her left hand, repeated opening and closing movements, this clumsy piece of steel clicked and snapped into each other with unimaginable flexibility, heavy and full of strength.Although Oregana insisted that this was her mining equipment, Professor Koyanagi felt that it must be placed in the [weapon] category no matter how she looked at it.

Perhaps this is the difference in concept. (far eye)

Hongshiweisan is a standard lava planet. If this is within her control, Oregana will definitely shoot a planet development facility on it. (nod)

The terrible landforms of the lava planet are usually caused by four situations:

The first situation is because the distance to the star is too close, and the star is stared directly at it non-stop [嘤~~~~], and it is roasted and red like a nickel ball heated on an oxygen welder.

The second situation is that the satellite is too close to the parent planet, and tidal forces lead to active geological activities. The constantly shaking crust and erupting volcanoes have become the main theme on this planet.

The third and fourth types are not so much the lava planets, but rather the state of a certain stage of them-when the planet has just been born and has not cooled down, or it has just been hit by a large asteroid, it will lead to the birth of the lava planet, but After tens of thousands of years, they usually slowly cool down to become a standard and ordinary rocky planet.

The red stone star is the second type.

"It's hell." Jim Raynor frowned involuntarily as soon as he stepped on the planet, and the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to deepen.This planet has no atmosphere, and the temperature is too high. The mask of the power armor must not be opened, and you will die if you open it.From here you can see the danger of this trip.

"I'm glad you're here, let's collect those crystal mines." Gabriel Tosh appeared in front of them for the first time. This black-skinned, strong man wore a strange set of power armor, and his eyes were jumping with psionic power." I won't treat you badly."

"Dude, it doesn't look as easy as you make it out to be."

"Well, it's a little bit. This place is not... stable. The low-lying area will be flooded with lava every few hours." Tosh looked around and said with a natural attitude, "But I think the lava is very important to you. It’s not worth mentioning at all.”

Are we Godzilla? Hey!

Wow... It feels like this promise is dishonest, there is a kind of rushing to say [This is nothing to the boss! Isn't it the boss!You really deserve to be a boss! 666! ] The feeling of driving the boss into a desperate situation.

"Of course, we used to try to swim in lava when we were digging mines." While Jim Raynor was still thinking about how to answer, Oregana showed her usual fearless thinking, "The landing pods can all be thrown out, Dig on the ground!"

Chapter 450 Chapter 409: No Stop Talking During Fights

The land of Hongshi Weisan has never been peaceful, but today it is even more noisy.

Oregana was standing on the ramp stained red by lava, the sky showed the color of glass before night, and the churning rock steam was all around, blurring the vision. The proximity alarms for positioning are almost completely disabled.

There are quite a few of the noisiest places in the world. If you want to make a ranking list, the battlefield and the construction site must be on the list—and the place where Oregana is now is not only a battlefield but also a construction site, and it is also a mining construction site.

On this vast highland, clusters of crystal ore are exposed on the surface with a slight blue light, and each crystal cluster is more than ten meters high.It even looks divine.

SCV and Atlas use welding torches to cut these precious minerals. The drivers carefully control the welding torches in the same state of mind as jewelers processing diamonds, and burn the solid crystals centimeter by centimeter. Take off the fragments and send them back to the command center not far away as quickly as possible.

In order to facilitate the entry and exit of SCV and Atlas, the alloy door of the loading and unloading port is not closed at all, it is folded down like a ship's side board, and it is placed on the ground in a slope shape. The drivers of the SCV are highly skilled and courageous, and never thought of going in honestly—the mine is clamped on the mechanical arm, and when the accelerator is stepped on, the thruster is directly driven into it...

Frankly speaking, it's really scary. After all, the SCV is five or six meters high, and the way it whizzes past with flames is much scarier than a hurricane tank.To be reasonable, heavy machinery like SCV is really scary. With its super large size and output, it feels like a good brother who can beat a row of 50 yuan. (meditation)

When Atlas moved the mine, he always walked by the side, for fear of being hit and killed by friendly troops.

As the reloading base of any human army outpost, the command center mainly collects and processes raw materials and energy, and coordinates the entire battlefield.It is worth mentioning that this behemoth can actually fly in an atmospheric environment (although the speed and maneuverability are ugly), structurally speaking, this product is not so much a building, but more like a small starship... …

I always feel that the technology tree here is a bit crooked. The equipment on the good brothers holding the C-14 in their hands feels inferior compared to this small starship... emmmmm, it is probably a matter of price. .

The mining site is in full swing, and the other side is also extremely lively.

Bang, bang, bang... The firing sound of the electromagnetic rifle produced by super-high scientific power was constantly ringing in the surroundings, and groups of savage monsters rushed down the slope to the position composed of bunkers and rifles.If the swarm had a bit of brains, they would know that attacking a fully equipped firepower position in this terrain environment is definitely tantamount to suicide-it seems that the queen here is very good.

Since they are very good, they will naturally not give up the chance to swipe and kill, after all, the most important thing is to be happy.

Oregana walked to the front while laughing loudly, the roar of the beam shotgun in her hand roared like thunder, and the power claw in the other hand struck out like lightning, lifting the jumping insects that rushed close again and again. Get up and squeeze to death.

Until now, she still insists that this power claw is an engineering equipment like Geta robot, not a weapon at all.

But Renault's rangers were all tense, as if they were facing a big enemy.For them, Redstone Weisan is by no means a good place.There is an extremely harsh natural environment here - toxic and thin atmosphere, terrifying high temperature, once the mask is damaged, or if you stumble and step on the ground and fall into the magma to swim, the god of death will pick you up like a cat and run away - Then activate the ability to manipulate the distance to send you from Hongshi Weisan all the way to the Santu River on the earth.

As scary as the natural environment is the Zerg that is constantly rushing up from the bottom of the ramp.and many more!These bugs are like Cocytus running naked in the rock steam!It's annoying to cheat to this extent, you bloody worms!

Oregana picked up the communication while cleaning up the bugs climbing up.

There are a lot of bugs, but they are still far behind the sea of ​​bugs in Mar Sara, and this is the only point of attack (the development of the lair on this planet seems to be very low, and the springtails only have the most basic version, no matter Whether it is to strengthen the carapace or accelerate the adrenal glands, it doesn't come out, it's a dish), and it's easy to keep it.

On the other end of the communication was Xianyu Zhai who was handling affairs in the rear. His face appeared in the lower right corner of the helmet in the form of a small window.Oregana glanced at him, put aside the beam shotgun that emptied the energy box, and raised her hand, the [Phantom Gun] system immediately sprinkled a barrage of bullets at the swarm. After firing a round, Oregana asked :

"Is this period of time okay? Have you finished dealing with the smugglers you mentioned last time?"

Because the bugs are very good, so it is no problem to pick up the communication at this time. (nod)

[I'm just talking about this. 】Salted Fish House sits behind the desk, holding an enamel jar in his hand, and the tea bags in it rise and fall in the hot water.He gently blew on the tea, and then pushed down his glasses [The matter has come to an end now, half an hour ago, the space station built by the smugglers was breached.The smugglers were all caught.There are still some of their goods stuck in the space station, and now the 'Tin Masters' are searching the space station, and the frontline commanders believe that there are still remnants hiding in the warehouse. 】

There was a small but noisy sound in the background, the fire made the communication window flicker, and the screen shook violently, making me feel dizzy.Although the legion leader was talking to him, he didn't look at him at all—her eyes moved around, and Yan Yi appeared from time to time.Xianyu Zhai knew at a glance that this guy was fighting fiercely.

But judging from the fact that he can still talk on the phone, maybe the intensity of the battle is not as high as it seems.

Xianyu Zhai took a sip of tea, and briefly reviewed the cause and result of the incident he reported——

Even the cats of Meow Star know that the Ministry of Consolidation is conducting a large-scale exploration of the universe, finding ecological planets to colonize or use as reserves.In this process, it is natural to discover some civilizations that are still in the early stages, most of which are between the Stone Age and the pre-industrial age.

Once this kind of civilization is found, the scientific expedition team will leave a beacon nearby, and the subsequent engineering team will come to the beacon point to select a site to build a space station to watch the growth of this civilization...By the way, sociology +8.

By the way, generally speaking, such galaxies with civilizations cannot be kept secret.The reason is simple: people from Tartarus are not the only ones responsible for stationing the space station. Insufficient manpower is the enemy.This is not to say that people from other civilizations will leak secrets. In the cosmic age, most of the secrets are leaked not because people's mouths are not strict.

The answer is three words - the supply line.

First of all, it is impossible for scientists stationed on the space station to stay on it for the rest of their lives. They work in shifts, usually every three months to half a year, and the routes can be said to be regular.Not only that, this kind of space station is small in scale (the cheap 'Watchman'-type space station, with a long axis of 300 meters), and cannot be self-sufficient in terms of supplies, and there will be transport ships delivering supplies from time to time.More importantly, if the distance is too far, it will be too difficult for the ship to jump directly, and a star gate needs to be built...

What?You say hide the stargate like a pirate?

Brother!Isn't there only one or two star gates? Dozens or hundreds of gleaming star gates are neatly stacked in the asteroid belt in New Eden?I'm afraid that one day I accidentally take an [-]x scope and aim it at someone.What's more, this is a serious project of the Ministry of Integration, so what's the point of hiding a serious project?

Leaking information is impossible. (spread hands)

At the beginning, I don’t know which smart pirate noticed that the “Watcher”-type space detection system was not as good as other detectors produced by Tartarus (because it was just a cheap product for planetary observation), they seemed can something be done...

Then they do something.Meowing quietly landed from the back of the planet, and exchanged cheap alloy knives and telescopes with the aborigines for special products-this is something that is not available in the market, collectors bought it, and these smugglers made a lot of money.

If you taste the sweetness once, there will be a second time, and the situation will intensify, even to the point where human trafficking begins.Rich guys think they can fuck all the cute guys in the universe, and in this day and age they think they can—of course, before the hammer of the law hits their heads.

By the time the scientists discovered this, the situation had gone from bad to worse - there were strange new beliefs on the planet, the aborigines were wandering around with anachronistic tools, and they were addicted to neurological drugs. down.Is this damn good?

Call headquarters and ask for some tech support.

The technical support is the newly formed 'Tingshi' unit.This unit is composed of graduates who have just graduated from the Naval Academy. The current main job is to conduct patrols and small-scale riots, so it is called "Ting Shi".

"Is the 'Tingshi' unit ready for actual combat? We thought it would still take time." Oregana shortened her body, and a few spines flew over the totem on her helmet, striking out on the volcanic rock. some dust.

These hydralisks saw this unusually active individual at the very beginning, and if there was a song to it, it would probably be—just because they took an extra look at you in the swarm.

She pulled out her bolt pistol from her waist and fired three bursts at the Hydralisk surrounded by zerglings.

The burst of hot plasma engulfed the Hydralisks, charring them before they could even roar.The terrifying high temperature burned their carapaces, and evaporated their body fluids. The bodies of the Zerg within the range seemed to remain intact, but the following bugs pushed forward, and lost their shape with a slight touch like soot that was shaken off.

Never remember your lava again. (nod)

"Good fight!"

The marines cheered loudly, and Oregana made a gesture, and several surviving marine bombers bypassed from both sides, and bombarded downwards without hesitation on the edge of the cliff. The flames and lava exploded together. The form is excellent.

[It's not to the point of being alone. In this tough battle, a company from the Wrath Regiment is actually holding the formation. If they can't get in, I'm afraid the Wrath Regiment will need to attack. 】Xianyu Zhai didn't know the battle situation ahead, he said leisurely 【But fortunately, they performed very well.According to the current statistics of casualties, there were no injuries on the side, and only one smuggler on the opposite side died—he was killed when the torpedo broke through the wall and rushed in at the beginning, and all the others were captured alive. 】

"That's right." The corner of the legion commander's lips curled up slightly. She was very satisfied with the result of the battle. It is much more difficult to kill the enemy than to kill them all. These children must have excellent abilities. She asked casually, "Commander who is it?"
